A splendid example Of how the new
opium law works was shown to the
people Of Hilo last week, when two
officers entered the store Of China.

several Chinese with a complete opium
outfit The officers arrested the Chinese
found in the room and conveyed them
and the opium outfit to the Police Sta
ton, where a charge Of smoking opium
was lodged against them. They were
accordingly taken before the Judge the
next morning. who dismissed the case
upon the evidence Of the proprietor Of
the establishment, who produced a
license to sell opium. Now this shows
how cute the Chinese are in cheating
the law as il now stands. Anyone can

license and smoke to his or her hearts
content; and, Il they are arrested, the
proprietor can always produce his
license as testimony, and swear the
people found in his RON are friends,
and that the outfit is his own personal
property, and that settles 1t.

performed, a representative of this
paper has procured from Mr. Horn a
list Of the viands supplied on that
occasion, which speaks for ITSELF 1t

Does Mining Payp

Referring to this subject, the Dead
wood Times says: This is question
often asked, and the most apt reply is,
that it depends Though millions have
been squandered in locating and devel-
Oping worthless claims, mines Of gold
and silver still remain one Of the
principal sources from which pubic
wealth and individual fortunes are de-
rived. The Rothchilds are large mine
owners and represent a syndicate for
the purchase Of gold mines, and have
agents looking them up in all parts of
the world. The Astors and Lorillards
have invested heavily in Mexican
mines. Mackey drew his $40, O0O, 900
from the bowels of the Consolidated
Virginia, and no one knows what he is
worth now. While his wife "cuts Il
swath" among the powers and princip-
a%lities" Of Europe, he still remains ia
Virginia City watching his diamond
drills. The Comstock paid its owners
$3.50 100000 in dividends before It's
treasures were exhausted. Senator
Jones interest in an Alaska mine yields
him 10000 a month. This same mine
with increased facilities for working
will produce, it is believed, SI,250,000 a
year. Boss Shepherd has 5000 men at
work in his mines in Old Mexico, and
his daily profit is $4,000 over all ex-
penses. The Granite mine, in Montana,
is paying $4,000 a month, and the stock
Of the Drum Lummon has advanced
from $40 to $50 a share and has in sight
immense reserves of ore. The Phoenix,
in Arizona. yields 81 100000 a year to
W. Connor, Jay Gould's partner, clear
profit. In Montana there are the South
Spring Hill, $4,000 a month, the Key
stone, $4,000 a month, Plymouth $751;
600 a month. Homestake, Of the Dako-
ia Black Hills, $4,000 a month; On
tario, in Utah, $4,000 a month, and
others making lIg records.
